Ukrainian Army Lost About 444, 000 Servicemen - Russian Defense Minister

On February 27, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu launched the monthly meeting of the Board of the Russian Defence Ministry. In his speech, which was made public, the Russian Defense Minister summed up the interim results of the ongoing Special Military Operation in Ukraine.

One of the important claims made by the Russian Defense Minister was the revealing of the available data on the losses of the Ukrainian military during the two years of hostilities.

According to the Russian Defense Ministry, Kiev’s total losses exceed 444, 000 servicemen. The Defense Minister stressed that since the beginning of this year, the Ukrainian army has been losing on average more than 800 personnel and 120 units of weapons and military equipment every day.

The declared number of the Ukrainian losses can be compared to estimations by various independent researchers. LINK The Ukrainian army lost more servicemen than it currently has fighting.

In December 2023, Shoigu said that the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine amounted to 383 thousand killed and wounded, of which more than 40% were lost since the beginning of Kiev’s counteroffensive.

On the other hand, just two days ago, the Ukrainian president declared that the Ukrainian army lost only 31 thousand dead soldiers. Zelensky did not name the number of wounded and missing in an attempt to hide the losses from the Russian military. As for the missing, Ukrainian president did not remember their number. Even Ukrainians and MSM did not believe Zelensky’s brazen lies. Unfortunately, many of his listeners continue to believe the fairytales told in Kiev.

The Russian Defense Minister also reported that,  since the beginning of 2024 alone, the Russian army has liberated about 327 square kilometers of the territory of the new regions of the Russian Federation in all directions of the front.

Over the past week alone, Ukrainian militants have been driven out of the settlements of Severnoye, Lastochkino and Pobeda in the DPR. Thus, the Russian military officially confirmed the full control of Severnoe located south-west of Avdeevka, where the mop up operation was completed.

The Russian Minister noted that with the help of high-precision weapons, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation deprive the Armed Forces of Ukraine of the ability to carry out counterattacks.

The head of the Ministry of Defense stressed that the current situation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the battlefield shows the futility of the US strategy aimed at deterring Russia. Meanwhile, the West is escalating tensions by increasing the scope of joint military exercises between the United States and its allies in NATO.

but don’t be fooled. it is not a war. it is a special military operation only…at least russians are insisting on that.

you’re right. it’s doublespeak. but “our” leaders are doing the same. for exemple, “french” president sarkozy deleted the word war from the french constitution in 2011. now the “french” government can start a “military intervention” without any vote of the chambers. nor holland, nor macron will supression or even talk about this légal monstruosity… they all have the same master.

clyde

there is no legitimate ukrainian state, and hasn’t been one since the 2014 coup. so special military operation seems appropriate to describe the russian response to the terrorist actions on its borders.

as long as an official declaration of war has not been made, and the reserve has not been put into motion, it cannot be a matter of war. russia has used volunteers. according to the international agreement, russia had the right to recognize independence of dpr and lpr. russia responded to the cooperation and aid agreement. ukraine has always been an attacking party from 2014 to east.

thats all it is, helping their brothers in donbas. let face it, it would be over quickly if russia went full on.

it’s only going to take a sudden fall of the front lines when russia will unleash 1500-2000 tanks and 2000 troop carriers to chase any surviving ukrainians back to kiev. any nato troops will not survive this time.

Piipii

the use of battletanks is increasingly irrelevant. the victories of the last few weeks have been officially said to be thanks to precision missiles. as well as thermobaric bombs and molten copper seeding bombs

Guy Metdrapedes

the entire war had been an artillery exchange more or less.

when did the eu become war-crazed? the eu has always pushed for immediate peace and negotiations. now the heads of state childishly refuse to answer even putin’s phone call. human dignity and human life have no meaning for western leaders. across the eu. what has happened? i’m ashamed to be european. only hungary wants immediate peace – that’s why it is barked at and smeared in the west..

kookii

what happened is that the clock is ticking for the “western” economies because they cannot service their enormous debt and their solution is war in order to steal the resources rich countries (russia, west asia…) we are pawns in their game and we will be sacrificed all over the place for their plan while these “leaders” and their closed ones hide safely in subterranean bunkers.

scott ritter thought the british army would last a week against russia. i think the french is much better but even so a month before logistics break down and heavy casualties. why would anyone want to die fighting for the most corrupt oligarchy in the world. the ukrainians at least have no choice the ones that do aren’t fleeing to return home to fight.

russia has made it very clear that any nato troops involvement in the smo (article 5) will mean nuclear war.

perfect use for the lives of people who might have a problem with open pedophilia, theft of everything and mass murder policies by killing agriculture; sent to be killed by russians.

i think the ukrainian losses are north of 700,000 troops, which means russia has lost about 70,000 troops so far.

well congratulations you were complicit in the plan to kill many slavs. if you would have acted while the west was still preparing the coup you could have saved hundred of thousands of people. you are supposed to be the protector of the slavic and orthodox not their slayer…

tak to by aj mohlo sedieť. to by znamenalo, že cca 1 200 000 ďalších vojakov je zranených a už nie sú schopní služby v armáde. preto aj tá panika na ukrajine a v nato. svetu mier!!!

it is wrong to blame russia for what ukrainians do! if they insist on having an identity crisis, plus, the west insists on giving them weapons to do self-harm…then, russia must simply do the best it can under the circumstances.

russia is not responsible for deaths around the world, they are only responsible for securing their territory. i think putin’s diplomatic efforts should be congratulated, otherwise, the world would be bathed in radiation.

it is going to be in radiation anyway. russia won’t roll over and the zionazi pedo cabal won’t stop. very straightforward given the nature of the western pedo-sadistic overlords.
